Cool. Also, can anybody tell me why a toy for 2-7 year olds can have a devious face for diesel but Bachmann Diesel who is recommended for 8+ has to have a happy face as not to "scare" the kids. I mean Bachmann did a great job on the face compared to the CGI but don't you think that if HIT was really worried about it they would have redesigned the trackmaster face to match? Please don't say "If you don't like the face, change it" Because I'm not complaining, I just want to know WHY.

It's nothing about "scariness," it's about HiT wanting a CGI face rather than a model face.

Ohhhhhh But why didn't they change the Trackmaster face? ???

Probably just that they don't have time to change every single product.

I think Diesel's face on Tomy/Trackmaster doesn't look too scary or devious so they left that unchanged.

I think Bachmann was going to give Diesel an angry face rather than a Devious face but I think it's quite ok as it is.
Thomas + Bachmann = the True Thomas Experience.
